 OFFLINE | Well, geeze, he won 2 million and the government took a little more than half, so this OLD fella only has almost a million dollars to live the rest of his life on. Gosh, give'em a break, guy's gotta eat!
Seriously, how many people WISHED they had to deal with winning 2 million bux with the government taking a little more than half of this FREE MONEY away from you in taxes? I mean, damn, I could live quite happily on $900,000 for the rest of my life WITHOUT any financial subsidies! |

I was the single mom working two (or more) jobs that the news guy mentioned so I cannot think everyone who needs help is horrible . . . and I hate to think anyone would ever put me in the same category with that guy. |

 OFFLINE | Donna, I'm pretty sure you aren't the kind of person who would continue to accept help after you could help yourself.
And Scott, I'm sure you're mistaken.... I heard some democrats just this morning saying that there is no abuse in the system. And one in 7, well that would be one or two people abusing the system. |
